#799: ISM President Dave Simon on maximizing retail media network investments

Today, we’re going to talk about the nuanced reality of Retail Media Networks. They represent one of the biggest shifts in marketing, but many brands are finding that the playbook from traditional digital advertising doesn’t quite translate. We’ll explore why simply plugging in programmatic tools isn’t the silver bullet it’s promised to be, how to navigate the internal budget battles between trade and media teams, and what it really takes for AI to deliver on its potential in a retail context. To help me discuss this topic, I’d like to welcome, Dave Simon, President of In-Store Marketplace at ISM.
